Among the other safeguards to liberty
should be mentioned the right of the
American people to keep and bear arms.
A standing army is peculiarly obnoxious
to any free government, and the jealousy
of such nm army has at times been so
strongly demonstrated in England as to
lead 10 the belief that even though recruit
cd from among themselves, 1t was more
dreaded by the people as an instrument of
oppression than tyrannical monarch or
any foreign power.
The alternative to a standing army is
a we'll regulated militia; but this cannot
exist unless the people are trained to bear
ing arms. The federal and state constitu-
tions therefore provide that the right of
the people TO bear arms shall not be in
fringed. Cooley.

We offer no apology for devotIng so much
time and attention to this much neglected
class Of diseases, believing that no condition
OF humanity Is too wretched to merit the
sympathy and best services OF the profession
to which we belong, as many are innocent
sufferers, and that the physician who de-
votes himself to relieving the afflicted and
saving them from worse than death, Is no
less q philanthrOpist and benefact0r to his
race than the surgeon or physician who, by
close application, excels In any other branch
OF his profession.

Who may be suffering from the effects of
youthful f0llies or indiscreti0ns will do we'll
to avail themselves of this the greatest boon
ever laid at the feet of suffering humanity.

every case Of seminal weakness or private
disease of any kind and charactag which he
undertakes to and falls to cure.

THE GREER COUNTY QUESTION SETTLED

Attorney General Hogg's decision in
the matter referred TO him by the land
commissioner relative to the sale and
lease of lands in Greer county, settles, as
far as this administration is concerned,
and tits sincerely hoped for all time, the
question of the disposition of the lands
of that county. The attorney as
in these columns 1t was a few days ago
intimated, and the hope expressed, that
he would do, has decided that the land
commissioner is under the law, author
lied to survey the lands of that county,
to designate the school lands, to sell the
said school lends, and to lease all the lands
in the county. This disposes of the whole
question, and virtually takes Greer county
into the fold with other Texas counties.
The states administration of the settle
ment and control of that county has, until
this time, been shamefully weak kneed
and unstatesmanlike. She was resting in
dignified and quiet acquiescene while
Uncle Sam was surveying the county for
himself, and in businesslike way taking
possession of it, and but for the energetic
action of that old defender of Texas in
her days of danger, Colonel Swisher, and
otf ers, who even went to Washington and
among the musty and forgotten rolls of
the departments there, searched out and
established maps that prove the title Of
that county to be unquestionably in
Texas, at this time Greer county would
be part of the Indian Territory,
and Texas would have lost
a valuable possession. The state since
then has been aroused to action, and this
decision by the attorney general will be
the means of farming out the states title
to small property holds, each of whom
will stand as bulwark between US and
the United States government All that
rich territory is too valuable TO be allowed
to lie idle and unproductive to the state
The school fund can be materially in
creased by the lease and sale of those
lands in the county apportioned to the
schools. And the state, from the other
lands there, can secure good revenue to
be applied to the extinguishment of the
state debt. We think the decision sound
in law, and there can be no question that
it is wise and polite. Greer county is
being rapidly settled up, and incident to
this decision the state will at once begin
to feel the benefit of such an inroad of
settlers.

NIHILISM REORGANIZED.

1t is announced from st. Petersburg
that nihilism has been recognized, and
this powerful, but occult power is now
prepared to carry out its plans. re-
sumption of bomb-throwing may be
expected in the near future, and the car
again be surrounded by enemies, invisible
and unknown. For some time there has
been lull in nihilistic sensations,
and the impression began to prevail that
the organization was falling into ''inocu-
Gus desuetude." But, the dispatch from
st. Petersburg this morning puts an end
to that idea. Evidently, another cam
paign is to be undertaken agaisnt the
imperial autocrat, the end of which none
can foresee, and which may furnish a
repetition of the tragic death of the father
of the present emperor of Russia.
There is something startling in this
resuscitation of secret power, unseen
and unknown, but co.extensive with the
uttermost limits of one of the greatest
empires of the earth, and whose ruler on
his throne trembles at the slightest mani.
festation Of tina. power.

IHE VETERANS DESERVE CONsIDERA-
TION.

The communication on "1he Greer
County Question Settled" written by an
old veteran of San Jacinto times, is an
earnest plea for the veterans owning
lands patented in Greer county. The few
survivors of those stirring and troublous
times are men of very scanty means and
bowed down with their weight of years,
suffering under the decrepitude of old age,
they are dependent for the most part, on
the aid the state is giving them,and can i'll
afford to lose the land they purchased by
their patriotic bravery and even with their
blood. Texas has millions upon millions
of acres of land she can sell without de-
priving these old men of their little stretch
of mother earth. And in Greer county
there is room for the state to act in selling
and leasing lands without. molesting the
claims of the veterans there. They have
In that county patented to them less than
one-fourteenth of the whole area of the
SOuh'J' SduuOD IulS Ou6-IOurl66Ibll
be left without the traciugs of
the surveyors chains, and with title unim.
peached, in the interest of mercy, be
allowed to await the action of the next
legislature? During the last session of the
legislature, while bill giving relief to the
Day Land and Cattle company was under
discussion, and especially while in the
sen ate, the respectable part of that legis-
lature, expression was frequently given
by those opposing the bill, to the effect
that while in the case before them they
would give no relief; yet, ii the veterans
alone were concerned, they would go
great lengths in helpi2g to reward them
according to the spirit and intention of
the law that first gave them the land
bounty. Can't such expressions of regard
and interest in their welfare be taken as
holding good for the future, and be used
as basis for the relief of these veterans
in the Twenty-frst legislature? At all
events, when the state has so much land
at her disposal, it seems that no injury
can result to the state if the land commits
sioner and legal authorities will act on
the suggestion of Mr.. Zuber, and give the
veterans the time asked for.

THE ASYLUM INVESTIGATION.

The investigation of the charges made
against DR.. Dorset, the superintendent
of the Austin insane asylum, has been
concluded by the board of managers of
the institution, and majority of that
board have decided that it would be beet
for the interests of the asylum, for DR.
Dorsett to leave the institution, and the
board has requested his resignation. This
request DR.. Dorsett has refused to grant,
and the question lie, what will be done
about it? The board have adjourned over
until Saturday, when final action in the
case may be expected.
The matter rests upon this footing:
Three, at least, of the five members of the
board of managers are unalterably op-
posed to DR.. Dorsett's remaining any
longer superintendent of the asylum. At
their dictation he was by the board re-
quested to resign, and upon his refusal to
do so, it would seem that only two reason
able courses are left open to the board
either to compel DR.. Dorset to leave
the asylum, or else place their own resig-
nations in the hands of the governor
For them to resign would be to shirk a
duty that, however disagreeable it may be,
by their own finding on the charges made
against DR.. Dorset, they have laid i'm
peratively upon themselves. The gov
ernor, when he appointed them the mana
gers of that large institution, clothed them
with grave responsibilities; they, and not
the governor, are by the law held to an
account for the wise and proper manage
ment of that asylum. Governor Ross can
not appoint or remove a superintendent;
that duty rests upon the board of mana
gers, and they are responsible for the
superintendent they appoint, and must re-
move him when, in their judgment, it
seems for the best interest of the asylum
to do so. 1t is not our intention, nor de
sire, at this time to comment on the JUS
tice or injustice of the finding of the
board. The three. members of the
board who represent its majority stand
prominently out before the community
as men of ability, worth and unimpeach-
able honor, they have gone carefully into
an investigation of this case, and have
pronounced a verdict adverse to DR.. Dor
sett. The two members of the board who
do not think DR.. Dorsett should be dis
missed, are also men whose position and
honor command the highest respect, and
they have drawn conclusions directly the
converse of the decision of the other three
members of the board. The majority of
the board, of course, must rule, and it is
not to be considered that this board, thus
divided, could longer continue their rela-
lions to DR.. Dorset as perintendent
the asylum under their management.
They have decided him unfit for the posi-
ton, and they could not now stultify
themselves by retaining him longer in it.
The next few days will bring this matter
to final issue.

A TEXAS ROMANCE,
In Which the Present Governor
Was a Prominent Actor.

In the year 1860 Captain Sui Ross, of
Waco NOW governor of Texas, while in
command of company of rangers" on
our northwestern frontier, had battle
with the Comanche Indians, the most
powerful of the wild tribes of the south
west. The Indians were routed and a
number of them captured. Among the
prisoners was rather youthful looking
person, dressed in male attire, and very
much bronzed, yet whom the keen scrutiny
of Captain Ross at once recognized as a
white woman.
She was taken to Camp Cooper, on the
Clear Fork of the Brazos, in what is now
Throckmorton county. In language and
habit, the poor creature was a perfect In
dian, having lost all traces of civilization.
For many years before, the Uomanches,
Apaches, CaddCs and other hostile tribes
of Indians had made frequent incursions
upon the frontier counties of Texas, often
killing the white pioneers, and frequently
carrying the women and children into
cruel captivity. Captain Ross was con-
WINGED, therefore, that the white woman
he had captured was the daughter of some
early settler, and he sent messages, to all
the settlements within his reach, of his
having her in his charge.
A very old man named Isaac Parker,
who, with several brothers and other rela-
tives had emigrated from Missouri to
Texas, was living in what is now Lime
stone county, where the little colony had
settled in 1888. Parker county, Texas,
was named for this family of Parkers.
For security from Indians these pic.
neers built fort, which YVES called Fort
Parker, and it stood near where the pres
